NDC #68220-088-90
The first and only prenatal nutritional supplement containing Heme Iron Polypeptide
(HIP as Proferrin®*) and 15 other essential nutrients in one of the smallest tablets available.
HIP is a non-ionic form of iron with proven clinical advantages:
HIP is absorbed intact via specific
transporters in the intestine2 |
- Heme + non-heme iron combination shows significantly fewer GI side
effects, e.g., nausea or constipation, than ionic iron alone3
- Heme iron is not impacted by consumption of phytates, phosphates or
tannins4
- Heme iron does not need Vitamin C for absorption4
- Heme iron is not impacted by PPI usage5
|
| HIP is 23 fold better absorbed than ionic irons6,7 such as ferrous fumarate and works synergistically with non-heme iron8 |
- Heme iron is clinically proven to restore and maintain iron levels in
pregnant women9,10
- Heme iron has a proven safety record over 20 years7
|
